From an untitled series of views of Japan
Kuniyoshi's untitled series of views of
Rain and Thunder around Hashidate - Dramatic image of a thunderstorm at Hashidate, with jagged bolts of red and orange lightning streaking across the dark sky. A pine tree frames an expansive view of the Bay of Miayazu and the famous "ama no hashidate," a long, narrow spit of land covered in pine trees. A few white sails are visible in the distance, with low mountains in gray along the horizon. A great design with attractive color and fine shading.
